We pay together

[sania-baharat]

Which of the following sentences are correct when we, my friend and I, want to pay for something together or seperately?

We pay together.
we pay seperately.
I pay my own.
We pick up the tab together.
We foot the bill together.
We go Dutch.
Don’t sum all the money please! We pay seperately!


Do you have any suggestion?

 

[probus]

We pay separately, we go Dutch, and I pay my own are all correct and natural, although they all have different meanings. Together, on the other hand, does not work in this context.

Thank you.
How about if we are in a situation where we have already one bill to pay and we each want to pay for our individual portion of the bill.

Can we say "please don't sum up the bill/ the whole money, we we would like to pay separately"?

 

[Rover_KE]

Say 'Can we have separate bills (AE checks), please?'

You should use the present continuous if you're talking to the server: We're paying separately, etc.

 

[yi-ing]

What if the server gives two separate bills. Can we say "We pay together"?

Who are you saying these sentences to?

You would use the present continuous in this sort of situation: We're paying​ together. However, the server won't understand that to mean that you want separate bills. Just ask for separate checks (American English).

Are you asking what to say if the server brings two checks/bills, and one person is going to pay for both of them?

Who are you saying these sentences to?

It can be a cashier in a store, server at the table, one who take the orders when we order some food for go not for here.

 

[teechar]

Then, you need to think of tense.

What if the server gives two separate bills?

That's virtually unknown unless they've been asked to do that.

It's not a problem: each pays their own share or one person pays both.
